The Poetry Translation Centre is seeking a freelance Editor to join our small and dynamic team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience of editing poetry and/or literature in translation, an international outlook and an entrepreneurial spirit.
As the organisation celebrates 20 years since its founding and as Director Erica Hesketh steps down after an incredible 8 years in post, we are seeking a dynamic and creative individual to lead the next chapter in our story and to support the incredible team at the PTC to realise the next phase of our vital work.
Three exciting poetry collections from the PTC coming up this year: Real by Karin Karakaşlı (tr. Canan Marasligil and Sarah Howe), The Thorn of Your Name by Víctor Terán (tr. Shook), and Translation of the Route by Laura Wittner (tr. Juana Adcock).
Throughout 2024, the Poetry Translation Centre is celebrating its 20th birthday with a jam-packed programme of events, workshops, publications and prizes.
Catch the poets and translators of our World Poet Series titles this year at Shubbak Festival, Ledbury Festival, the British Library, the Southbank Centre and more!
